Lea Michele: 'I'm in the best shape ever'

Lea Michele has revealed that she is now in the best shape of her life thanks to her role in Glee.

The 24-year-old, who plays Rachel Berry, explained that having to dance in the show has been a positive thing for her body.

She told the Daily Record: "You know, I am not really a dancer. So the choreography really is a challenge for me. But I am in better shape now than ever before. I could come out with a Glee fitness video now."

Michele also admitted that she finds fame hard to deal with at times but believes that it's worth it.

She added: "Overall it's been very supportive. The fame is something I try not to think about too much. You need to be a little more careful when you go out. But again, the upside outweighs the downside."
